Homeopathy for Allergies

Allergic Rhinitis, a time for change:

Allergies can be a beast. I have had many troubles with them myself over the years. They affected my quality of life and progressed after a time into nasal infections, intense throat infections, and affected my memory and concentration in school. 

Because nature includes nurture, I find as a mom of kids with allergies, some of our beloved kiddos may become very difficult dare I say frustrating to care for. They can have big mood swings, and difficulty with exercise or working and playing outdoors. They may have meltdowns when trying to accomplish schoolwork or just become uninterested because they do not feel well enough to think clearly. It also makes colds season a bear, as they may have double the trouble at school and home.

 Allergic rhinitis can become so frustrating as to make any kid or adult want to give up trying, whether in school, while playing, or socializing. Some things you may already be doing to manage the seasonal colds and coughs:

Everyday tips for allergic rhinitis symptom management-

1)    Washing up after being outdoors, hands feet, head, arms.

2)    Keeping fresh clothes for indoors and washing sheets, washing pets.

3)    General dusting and sweeping,

4)    Reducing wheat, sugar and processed foods

5)    Raw local honey with ginger and lemon tea may be soothing and relaxing

6)    Adding Omega’s and fish oils keep things moving.

Homeopathy can be one of the movers of allergies, because it reaches not just the symptoms, but the inherited predisposition to them as well.

Homeopathy for allergies:

Some allergies are intense or ongoing, year after year, without real relief. Here are a few remedies that often help allergic rhinitis:

1)    Euphrasia – for itchy irritated eyes, runny nose, and sneezing.

2)    Pulsatilla – for thick and goopy mucus, warm, but likes fresh air.

3)    Apis – for itching, hot red, and irritating hives, and sneezing

For ongoing symptoms, Homeopathy is most successful when it is chosen to match an overall person, their history and development included. Some may have headaches, others ear infections, others a tummy ache with their allergy symptoms, some may have had injury or inherited roots of allergies. I’m happy to discuss these and other symptoms if you’d like to schedule with me soon.
